So it took several months for this to start? I've been told and read that it is inevitable - a side effect of the surgeries. Dreading it. I've got pretty thick hair but it is also quite long . I know part of the issue is not enough protein - which is a problem for me as I struggle to get in even the minimum. I started taking Bioten about a month ago (you have to let your doctor know as Bioten can impact blood results). Although I hadn't at that point started to lose. Noticed yesterday after washing it and brushing it out that is DEFINITELY thicker - but not sure what will happen once it starts to fall out!

Congratulations! Do we ALL feel as if we lose slower? I guess we all focus on that apparent minority of people who lose TONS ... when if we all feel that way, maybe that's the common way? I feel the same way - struggling mightily to get protein in, hell, to get food in - mine was June 11 - and at this point not sure what weight I am! Been dealing with a sick mum - so the last two plus weeks been a blur.

Past couple of months I've noticed my thick hair becoming thin. Whenever I run my hands through my hair there are always some in my hand and washing it results in a large amount going down the drain. I'm just getting to 10 months post op and hoping it will stop thinning and some new roots will start to grow. Even my hairstylist noticed, so we decided to go with a short bob to help lift and give a fuller look.

I've tried to search about it and see mention Biotin supplements and Castrol oil. I am doing my vitamins and my last blood work looked good. Ideas?

Thanks, Sunny
